Chapter 1166

Leonardo and Tom Hanks cut off most of their pay by chance, which made Spielberg suddenly think of a Chinese movie star, Li Lianjie.

Li Lianjie used to be one of the most valuable movie stars in Hong Kong films, which is an absolute box office guarantee. But when he came to Hollywood, he failed several auditions. Finally, Richard downer, the director of deadly weapons 4, found him and wanted to invite him to play one of the villains.

At first, Richard downer gave us $1 million as a reward, which is far lower than the value of Jet Li in Asia. But Jet Li promised to break through the barriers between Hong Kong films and Hollywood films.

However, Richard downer later repented and changed to $700000, and Li Lianjie agreed. However, Richard downer didn't take it as soon as he saw fit, but he made a final offer of $500000. Everyone thought that Richard downer was too much, and Li Lianjie would not agree. Li Lianjie agreed.

In the end, Li Lianjie participated in the film at a price of 500000 dollars, which even included a considerable part of his lawyer's fees in the United States, which was 18000 miles less than his remuneration in Hong Kong. However, Li Lianjie didn't make much money for a film, but he sacrificed a considerable part of his remuneration in order to really break the barriers of Hollywood, but His goal has also been achieved through this sacrifice of pay.

Once upon a time, Richard downer's shameless behavior, which can rival Harvey Weinstein's, was despised in the whole Hollywood, but it also reflected the difficulties and dangers for non Hollywood actors to enter the Hollywood circle.

However, Spielberg did not expect that this situation would soon change.

Even though Hollywood hasn't seen a large amount of capital from China, it has to be said that Hollywood's super front-line actors are willing to reduce their value in order to develop and break through higher barriers like Li Lianjie.

It seems that Li Mu has really become the top man that the whole Hollywood pursues. In front of Li Mu, the whole Hollywood has become the bottom.

The gap between these two levels is so great that these two Hollywood super front-line actors have to get through this relationship at any cost. If Li Mu had a little more time, he would have turned the whole Hollywood into his own back garden

Because Hollywood itself is the playground of world capital, Spielberg did not regard Li Mu as an intruder of Hollywood, but in his mind, Li Mu became his biggest opportunity.

Before Li Mu's appearance, Hollywood companies and behind the scenes capitals had already made the competition white hot. At this time, whoever wants to snatch any piece of cake from the competitor's mouth will be attacked by countless people, and it's not easy to shuffle.

In this case, there is only one way to shuffle: strong external interference!

Li Mu is the most powerful external force in Hollywood at present!

Spielberg knows about Li Mu's influence. If he goes back and joins hands with Makino image to push the Makino ticket system to the whole North America, Hollywood's cinema channel will be firmly controlled by the Makino ticket system. If Li Mu combines the influence of YY, it will be a big killer in the film market. What's more, Li Mu has more than resources, And money!

What is Hollywood playing? Isn't it money and resources? Li Mu's eye bottom has a billion dollar body on the bright side. This is not the market value of Taobao, Alipay and Taobao logistics. Spielberg firmly believes that Li Mu will be able to claim the richest man in the world in a few years. In the face of the world's richest man, Hollywood will not only resist, but will take the initiative to strip off the clothes on its body and climb up the bed of the other side.

……

Li Mu learned the exciting news from Spielberg the next day.

What excites him most is not that the two men have reduced their pay and saved themselves at least $30 million in budget, but that the two actors they like very much have decided to participate in the flying tigers!

At the stage of Li Mu, tens of millions of dollars is really nothing. Even if these two people offer their own prices directly according to the market price, as long as they are willing to play, they will not be stingy with money. What he is most worried about is if any of them are unwilling to play or schedule conflicts.

Because in Li Mu's mind, he can't find the actors who are more suitable for the two roles in the Flying Tigers.

Li Mu has seen all the films played by Tom Hanks. He is the most convinced of the old man about what he is playing. It is not inappropriate to say that he is the best actor in the United States. For example, the prototype of "Captain Sally" is captain salenberg, who created the Hudson River miracle. Tom Hanks is to be named to play himself Li Mu has seen the film, it feels like watching a documentary.

Apart from him, Li Mu really can't find a second suitable person. At first glance, it seems that the image and temperament of bald Bruce Willis match Chennault very well. But Li Mu's heart has always felt that Bruce Willis is not suitable for playing too deep roles. He is suitable for acting in action films and pure commercial films. His acting skills match those of Tom Hanks, the Aussie Card double material movie emperor is not in a dimension at all.Moreover, no one is more suitable for the role of No. 3 man, that is, young American pilot. At present, Leonardo's face value is not offline, and he is born with a rebellious youth temperament, which has been fully reflected in cat and mouse game. When he plays this role, not only his temperament is perfect, his acting skills are excellent, but also his face value is online, which is definitely the most important No one is a good choice.

Now, the best actors in Li Mu's mind are in place.

Not only the two of them, but Anne Hathaway is already in place. Three of the five key stars have been identified.

In the play of Flying Tigers, there are also two actors who play a lot of roles, one is the role of China's ace pilot, the other is the role of a local rural girl in Southwest China. As for the latter, Li Mu is very inclined to continue to let Duwei play. It's not that he intends to take care of Duwei, but that Duwei's acting skills are really very good, much better than those sent by the college.

Many college actors are so bad that it's hard to look at them directly, but many non college actors are able to perform without any trace. Moreover, she has not only a high beauty, but also a kind of tender and watery temperament. It's really suitable to play the most beautiful village girl.

And Li Mu can be sure that Du Wei will never refuse his invitation, so that four of the five key stars have been determined.

As for the role of China's ace pilot, Li Mu was in a real dilemma.

Although Zhang kexuan's acting skills are good enough, they are just good enough. He is good enough to play idol drama, but he can't control this kind of production.

In fact, there are many good actors in China, but what Li Mu can think of is the older ones, such as Li Xuejian, Bao Guoan, Tang Guoqiang, Chen Zhiming, ge you and Fan Wei, etc., but they are too old. If there are other older characters in the play, they can invite these old actors in, but the important role of man No. 2 is not enough.

Li Mu's brain is filled with actors who are under 30 years old and whose acting skills are OK. After thinking for a long time, he doesn't think of a suitable actor.

Li Mu is not to blame. In this era, domestic films have been in decline. Occasionally, a few films with good performances are almost supported by those old actors. There are few young actors who are really good at acting, let alone those with good acting skills.

Li Mu is also very clear in his mind that if he wants to find the most suitable actor for this role, he should look for it from the Hong Kong film circle, because among the young generation of actors, the current acting skills and professional qualities of Hong Kong young actors are indeed much higher than those in China. Even if Mr. Guan Xi is taken, both acting skills and appearance value can be held.

However, Li Mu really doesn't want to use Hong Kong actors in such a movie. It's not that he has any discrimination and discrimination against Hong Kong actors, but he thinks that such an international oriented movie must be controlled to the minimum of language types. Since it's a story of Chinese and Americans fighting side by side, the core language can only be Mandarin and English Japanese invaders use a small amount of good Japanese, which is the best result.

Therefore, all Chinese actors must use mainland actors who speak standard Mandarin, because a real good movie can't be recorded later, it must be a strict simultaneous radio.

Moreover, Li Mu has an indescribable obsession in his mind. Such a film about the hard struggle of the Chinese people against Japan, he subconsciously hopes that all Chinese actors are mainland actors. Only in this way can they be more pure.

However, this generation of young Chinese actors is really not striving, Li Mu racked his brains and couldn't think of several real actors.

Huang Bo's acting skills are good, but he looks really sorry. If you want him to play this role, the audience will think that Anne Hathaway's beautiful American nurse must be a blind woman;

Dengchao's acting skills can also be said in the past, but Li Mu watched him play too many bad films in his last life, and the transition was entertained, so he was unwilling to play such an important role Give it to him;

who should I use?

Li Mu's meditation didn't work out, but soon, he decided to put the problem aside, and then let Wang Yuanlang go to the hotel to take Spielberg to his home, and prepare to talk with him about the startup of Jianzu. Since there are four core actors in place, it's time to officially start!

As for who will play the No.2, Li Mu suddenly came up with a solution. After the production team, main lineup, investment scale and story outline of "Flying Tigers" are released, it will bring great repercussions all over the world, especially in China and the United States. The most repercussions must be the Chinese people. Then, taking advantage of "Flying Tigers" Team "is a big news. Come to the national casting contest directly!
